Problem
People with tinnitus experience persistent ringing, buzzing, or hissing that interferes with daily activities, sleep, and emotional wellbeing. Traditional sound‑masking approaches often require earbuds, apps, or bulky equipment, making continuous therapy impractical and drawing attention to the condition.
Solution
TinniSoothe is a lightweight, neck‑worn sound‑therapy device that delivers configurable white‑noise directly toward the ears without blocking them. The module can be worn discreetly throughout the day and placed in a bedside dock at night, where it switches to a low‑volume night‑mode and recharges. By providing continuous, low‑level sound enrichment, the device helps the brain habituate to tinnitus, reducing awareness, anxiety, and sleep disruption. It requires no apps, Wi‑Fi, or ear‑inserts, allowing users to integrate therapy seamlessly into everyday life.
Target Audience
Primary users are adults living with chronic tinnitus who need continuous, non‑invasive sound therapy—particularly those seeking a discreet, wearable solution for daytime use and night‑time sleep support.
